In the circuit shown if drift current for the diode is 
, the potential difference across the diode is:
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
Diode is reversed biased, so only drift current due to minority carriers which is 
will flow
Potential drop across Resistor,
Potential difference across the diode
